So i got my 125 finally! Its 72" long x 18" deep x 20" tall. Its got 3 holes drilled, and it came with this funky looking filtration/pump thing that i have no idea what or how it works so i figured id take pictures of it and see if anyone knew what it was. I was planning on not even using it and plugging the three holes and going with 2 xp3's from petsmart, but if its a good system i might use all three, because i plan to put my peacock bass and arowana in there.

I think $200 even is a pretty good deal for an acrylic 125 with stand, plus whatever kind of filtration/ pump this is haha.

Heres the pics:

Its gonna be setup in my garage, which will soon be the fishroom/ lounge.

Im gonna put my 5 peacock bass in it, along with my arowana and probably my pike/ channel catfish. Now ive got a 40 gallon and a 60 gallon i can restock! yay!

im addicted to fish, but its fun.
 
Nice score :headbang2

Well worth the price in my book, several hundred $ worth of filters / heater & pump.

Water comes in to the mechanical filter and out the heater to the pump and back to the tank.

Looks like they had split the return line.

Did you get anything for an overflow box?

great pickup and at a very good price.
 
Ok, so hooking everything up to the bottom...not my favorite but make sure all your connections are tight and hoses are good.
